Instant dark teas (IDTs) were individually liquid-state fermented using the fungi , and . To understand how the chemical constituents of IDTs were affected by the fungi, samples were collected and measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Untargeted metabolomics analysis revealed that 1,380 chemical constituents were identified in positive and negative ion modes, and 858 kinds of chemical components were differential metabolites.

Among all types of tea, black tea is produced in the largest amount worldwide, and its consumption is still increasing. Enzymatic fermentation is considered majorly contribute to quality formation of black tea, and the information about the roles of bacterial community in black tea processing is scarce. This study aimed to analyze the dynamic changes in composition, structure, and function of microbial communities during black tea processing and reveal the roles of bacterial community in black tea processing.

Objective: To investigate the main clinical characteristics and genetic analysis of rare chromosome aberration in peripheral blood.

Methods: Peripheral blood cells were cultured for 72 hours with routine method and slids performed, and then the slide was read and mode analysis was carried out. The diagnostic standard of rare chromosomal aberation was: 1-2 abnormal kary types were found in every 30, 60, 200 mitotic phass.

Article Synopsis
  • A cDNA of the rice ragged stunt oryzavirus (RRSV) was created to express its protein PS9 in E. coli, resulting in a purified 38kD polypeptide after cleavage.
  • Using antiserum raised against the fusion protein, gold immuno-labelling experiments indicated that this 38kD polypeptide is a key protein in the virus spikes.
  • Virus transmission tests with brown planthoppers showed that the presence of PS9 inhibited virus transmission, suggesting that spike proteins are crucial for viral infection.
